I'm sorry this is wedding related...

Is this a new thing to give the mother of the bride a gift from the bridal party?

God, I hope not. I'm in a wedding in August and most of the bridal party can't stand the mother.

Re: I'm sorry this is wedding related...

I've never heard of it before.

However, I could see where it would make sense if say, the mother of the bride paid for the entire bridal shower. In that case, the bridesmaids might want to give HER a thank you gift for paying for the shower, since they didn't have to.

(I'm one of 4 girls, and my mom paid for all of our showers. She certainly would have appreciated a Thank You along the way, but a gift wasn't necessary).

But other than that, I really can't think of why the bridal party would get a gift for the MOB.

Wow, that was very nice!! I would have give a gift then too.

My mom didn't get a gift from my girls when I got married 5 years ago. She paid for the whole shower...favors and all...
